Two yr old cocker/King Charles cross spaniel.
Saturday morning she was fine, went for a walk as normal. Left her in her crate for a few hours in the afternoon (family shopping trip) then when we got back I let her out into the garden. When she came back in I lifted her up to clean her wet paws and she let out a yelp.
Since then she has been really lethargic and yelps when touched (although we haven’t been able to pinpoint exactly what is hurting her and we have done visual checks of pads etc).
Took her to the vet on Monday morning and they checked her over – they couldn’t find anything specific (although she didn’t like it when she was touched around her neck). She was given some pain killers and told to rest (no walkies)! for a week then go back.
Last night she was sat on my knee and I lifted her off really gently and she let out another big yelp and wasn’t happy at all.
She is eating/drinking/toileting as normal
First time we’ve had anything like this and feeling pretty useless – any one had anything similar and if so, what was the outcome?
